I thought it was kind of a pank club. Heavy music. Live band is good. not your most elegant place. Great pictures on walls. If you like (heavy) rock, you will love it here. Hip crowd. Note 3 very cool posters on the way to toilets. More

We came to Vancouver for the weekend and decided to give the Roxy a try. We went there around 10:40pm on a Friday night. We waited for an hour or so to get in, I think because there were a lot of single guys ahead of us or maybe just a lot of people. (We were two girls, two guys).... More

I am a responsible (and non-alcoholic drinking) 24-year old female adult (I'm Asian and I drive my car everywhere I go because I live in the boonies). I touched a screen that was two inches away from my face out of curiosity and had TWO bouncers push me out of the doors (despite asking them to stop pushing me and... More

I was very impressed with my experience at the Roxy. It wasn't what I was expecting at all. I loved the live band and was even more amazed at how good they were. The doorstaff were very welcoming, unlike the trained thugs they use to police the doors in England as was the lady behind the ticket counter As for... More

You must have showed up super early, the band starts, as was already mentioned, around 10 or so. The stuff "growing" on the roof is sound insulation, there are apartments above. The Roxy is consistently a good time, no other club can say that about all 7 nights of the week. Next time just give it some time, on a... More

So you know the stuff that happens at the door is mandatory at any nightclub on the 900 Granville block strip. All other clubs on the strip cost at least $10 to get in and their prices are all more expensive except on some specials nights where some clubs cater to the lowest common denominator by putting doubles on for...

The Roxy was way overrated. For some reason, the bouncer at the door first inspects your ID, then you go to the desk and the lady swipes your ID, then she takes your picture "for your safety". When we went, there was supposed to be a band playing. The bouncer said they would start in about 20-30 mins but we... More

I am sorry your experience at the Roxy wasn't up to par for you. We have been Vancouver's best club for over 20 years. As for the ID check, scanning and wanding, it is standard procedure here in downtown Vancouver and all the clubs that belong to a group called BarWatch to do this. It is for the safety of... More
